Perfectly legal for UCI racing and perfect for triathlon as well, the Shiv TT is ridden by highly competitive athletes looking for the most efficient power transfer, most aggressive position, and least drag. When racing against the clock, these riders demand a pure speed machine—World Championships in TT and Ironman prove nothing is faster in these disciplines.
WHAT:
Radically shaped carbon tubing engineered to create advanced aerodynamic structures.
WHY:
Ensures the lowest drag possible from leading to trailing edge.
HOW:
We design our own airfoils for the unique geometry and angles of the Shiv TT, based on computational studies and hands-on research in the wind tunnel. By studying the aerodynamics of the entyre 3D system (bike and rider) and seeing how airflow in one section affects the next, we can optimise our airfoil shapes to more efficiently minimize drag.
WHAT:
A precise frame sizing method that’s based on effective stack (X) and reach (Y) to the aerobar pads.
WHY:
Allows the rider to determine their appropriate bike size and more closely replicate their fit from bike to bike, rather than relying on traditional top tube measurements. A fine-tuned fit is especially important for triathlon bikes, where the rider must hold a fixed position for an extended period of time.
HOW:
Measures the height of the aerobar pad above the bottom bracket (effective stack) and how far the pad sits in front of the bottom bracket (effective reach).
WHAT:
Strategically designed head tube/steerer assembly that tapers from 1” at the top to 1-1/8” at the crown.
WHY:
Increases torsional strength and stiffness for greater steering precision, while maintaining aerodynamics.
HOW:
Keeping the top section narrow minimizes frontals surface area, and the wider base creates a stiffer junction. The gradual transition of carbon fibre from top to bottom eliminates the potential for weak spots.
WHAT:
All components designed together for complete system integration.
WHY:
Allows us to make a stiffer and more aerodynamic bike.
HOW:
All components—from the brakes, head tube, and stem, to the bottom bracket and crankset—are designed from the ground up to work together for the intended ride experience.
